UH player’s tribute shows injured teammate’s on his mind

During a hospital visit last week, University of Houston linebacker Phillip Steward told injured cornerback D.J. Hayden he was going to get the No. 2 – Hayden’s jersey number – shaved into the side of his head.

He made good on the promise Monday.

“He liked it so I told him I would wear it for the rest of the season,” Steward said.
